Ngai (Enkai, En-kai, Engai, Eng-ai, Mweai, Mwiai) is the supreme god in the religions of the Kamba, Kikuyu and Maasai nationalities of Kenya. According to the Kikuyu beliefs, he lives on the holy mountain Kirinyaga (Mount Kenya). According to the Kamba, he lives somewhere in a hiding place and no one knows where. Although some Maasai people have converted to Christianity, many still practice their traditional religion. The Maasai believe that he is the god of the sun and love and was the creator of the world; in another one of their traditions, this god married Olapa (the goddess of the moon).
